Vertigo
A staff member called into the University Police to report vomit in Forest Hall starting in the stairwell and ending on the fourth floor Thursday morning. Facilities Management was notified for a cleanup.

Those aren’t raisins…
On Tuesday night, a resident in Orchard South Apartments called in to report a problem with ants in the unit. Facilities Management was notified for an exterminator to be called.

Afternoon delight
Saturday was a beautiful day and nearly the entire Bentley campus made their way outside to enjoy some fun in the sun.  A joyous party ensued all over campus. The day was going great until late in the day when University Police officers decided to crack down on the omnipresent open container of alcohol violations all over campus.

They met with several pockets of resistance but found a particularly tough group at the lower Greenspace.  There, campus police spotted and approached a girl who was wrapped in a blanket, fast asleep in a very unnatural position on the grass. When they began to check the status of the female, some dude confronted them saying, “What, she can’t even take a nap!?”

When questioned, he informed officers that it didn’t matter if he knew her or not.  The student put up quite a fuss but eventually gave his ID to the offers who informed him that he would be charged with being disrespectful and uncooperative with administrative personnel.   The student laughed at the officers and said “OK, tough guy,” as he walked away.

The cops then turned their attention back to the girl passed out in the grass.  They gently shook her awake and she rolled over gave a confused but friendly, “hello,” to the officers.  They noticed 2 nips on the blanket and asked her how much she had to drink.  The girl simply replied, “enough.”

Officers decided it would be prudent to administer a sobriety test and helped her off the ground.  When it was time to walk on her own she quickly clung to one officer for support.  When she began to vomit, an ambulance was called to take her to the hospital. She will be charged with public intoxication, protective custody and an underage alcohol violation.

While the officers were waiting for the ambulance to arrive, a male approached them and identified himself as the boyfriend of the female.  He denied that she had been drinking at all.  The student was asked to leave the scene but refused and was charged with being uncooperative and disrespectful to administrative personnel.

The ordeal had attracted a large crowd and the police were being pounded from all sides with verbal harassment.  The vulgarities were particularly harsh from one of the windows of Orchard South where swears and pig noises continued even after the ambulance had left. Officers identified the room where the yelling was coming from and went to find the student.

As officers approached the room in question, the person yelling bolted out of the room and into the room across the hall.  Police knocked on the door and threatened to write up everyone in the room if they didn’t tell them who it was that was yelling.  The group quickly sold out the student.

The male had red, watery eyes and claimed that his contacts were bothering him.  He said that he would not allow officers into his room and then ran into his room and slammed the door shut in the officers’ faces.  The University Police eventually got the door open and began to search the room.  The student denied drinking but officers found an open 30 rack on the floor of the apartment.  He will be charged with suspicious behavior and disrespect to administrative personnel.
